genetronsystems.com: Indoor Air Quality and Sick Building Syndrome
Many homes have poor air quality. Some experts say the air in private homes may be worse than in public buildings. Heavily polluted air, especially in urban areas, as well as the air‑tight environments in today's energy‑efficient, better‑insulated buildings, contribute to this situation.

Message from the President of SIP

Every year we host a Holiday Party at Bright Pearl, unfortunately the restaurant has closed down. I wanted to keep the tradition live, and have found a small private room at an Indian Restaurant. This room can only accommodate only 15, and I think it is a good number, as it will provide each person to share their 2012 projects.

Venue: Chef of India Restaurant, 1415 Yonge St. (at St. Clair Ave. W), Toronto, ON

Menu: All you can eat from a Buffet of three dozen items: meat & vegetarians, spicy and non-spicy food and of course the Indian tandoori Nan & chicken.

Cost: $12 + $2 Service + Taxes + Beverages/drinks

If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me at founder@sipgroup.org
